Academy Award® nominee Ralph Fiennes (The English Patient, Schindler’s List, Oedipus at the National Theatre) plays Jack Tanner in this exhilarating reinvention of Shaw’s witty, provocative classic. Jack Tanner, celebrated radical thinker and rich bachelor, seems an unlikely choice as guardian to the alluring heiress, Ann. But she takes it in her assured stride and, despite the love of a poet, she decides to marry and tame this dazzling revolutionary. Tanner, appalled by the whiff of domesticity, is tipped off by his chauffeur and flees to Spain, where he is captured by bandits and meets The Devil. An extraordinary dream-debate, heaven versus hell, ensues. Following in hot pursuit, Ann is there when Tanner awakes, as fierce in her certainty as he is in his. A romantic comedy, an epic fairytale, a fiery philosophical debate, Man and Superman asks fundamental questions about how we live.

在看过大卫·田纳特版的《理查二世》和本·卫肖出演的BBC剧集《空王冠》版本之后，你还能否想象另一番模样的《理查二世》？
以NT Live版《李尔王》为中国观众所熟知的两度奥利弗奖得主西蒙·拉塞尔·比尔，此次在以犀利的当代改编而闻名的阿尔梅达剧院挑战这部莎翁经典，演绎理查二世在权力倾轧下扭曲的心理。导演乔·希尔-吉宾斯对这部剧进行了大刀阔斧的改编，甚至删去了原作中的不少段落，集中于危险的权力运作及其心理学研究：王宫大臣们如同秃鹰一样围着理查二世的王冠，而理查时而刚愎自用，时而手足无措。舞美设计所采用的半封闭式极简舞台，如冰冷的金属盒子，将历史上硝烟四起的内战化为政治惊悚片一样的殊死搏斗。
